Backpackers international have quite warm and friendly atomosphere for staying. It was so effortless to get along with individuals in there. I was able to get a key for room so items were kept secured. Tisa, the hostel runner was willing to help me and was warm and friendly to all of the individuals at there. It is not located in front of beach but few minutes of walk, I could access to nice beach.

The people were quite nice and it was not crowded. I especially enjoyed the managers recommendation of going to the free vodka and orange night.

It was really straightforward but there was was all we needed. It was not superclean but we did not feel uncomfortable going to the restroom or taking a shower. It was just a 1 minute walk to the beach. Tisa, the hostelowner, war really warm and friendly and cared about us. She helped us a lot with bookings and had superb tips for our holiday. The hostel has a nice common location and it has a really peaceful atmosphere.

The hostel was situated within a brief walk of the beach, which was nice - it&'s also just down the road from a small convenience store, and one of the island bus stops. It&'s situated on the rather silent southwestern coast of Rarotonga, but it easily accessible by hitching a ride with a local, or by city bus. The hostel does provide an airport pickup to all travellers, but they did arrive late, even right after a number of email reminders. Such unprofessionalism is somewhat expected, though, when a hostel is run by twenty-somethings who may have not yet mastered the expectations of a professional travel service. There was a kitchen, which was useful for preparing meals. The employees were friendly, and did the most effective they could with an otherwise simple, bare-bones property. I did like the fact that they hold a weekly international food potluck, which was great for meeting fellow travellers.

I really liked the employees there as properly as the atmosphere. It was effortless going and relaxing.
